Maurier chose birds because, like nature, they are difficult beings to be stopped by humans.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- When we read "Birds" we can see that the author wants to reinforce the power of nature in human life.
- In this way, the author shows nature as a force that is very difficult to be stopped and that has violence that cannot be fought.
- As birds are animals difficult to be tamed by human beings and difficult to be limited to a single location, because of their ability to fly, they can represent the unstoppable power of nature.
Thus, by using birds to attack humans, the author shows that nature is an unstoppable force, which humans cannot control.
